Pre-season Kings/Warriors game thread

[kingsboi]

noticed that as well, wonder what could it possibly be down 40

he probably told them "scoreboard"

 

[burekijogurt]

need a 4th splash brother?

I think he was talking crap, the way their bench reacted it looked like they didnt like what he had to say.

Their bench probably tried to say something to him during his shot, and he made and barked back.

Look at the the pick and roll working when we don’t have 3 ****ing centers on the floor.

Nice run by Jackson last couple minutes

Yeah its been evident since preseason 2017, basically ever since they drafted Fox.
Its a tragic combination of a FO that apparently hasnt watched an NBA game since 2007, has an aversion for 6'8" SF/PFs and has no experience with roster construction paired with a stubborn Coach thats only NBA success came with Marc Gasol / Zbo.

[Ozymandias]

Probably said something to the 3 weak bitches (Green,Durant, and green) who were talking to him. Like why y’all talking for your rings mean nothing

 

[Joshoua]

As much hate as Jackson was getting he played 10x better than Hield

he definitely does not back down from anyone.

I wonder how Vivek will take seeing the Kings be an ugly joke on ESPN.

 

[Ozymandias]

Monster block by Gabriel on McKinnie!

 

[The Effort Police]

Man... I wonder who I dislike the most.

Vlade, Vivek, or Joerger?

 

[Ozymandias]

JVG just said at the end of the game "i'm concerned watching this; are their bigs going to pass to each other?"

Honestly thats not a concern of mine, they'll do fine with that. Willie and Giles especially.

 

[Folsomkingsfan]

this whole team looks like a disaster.

 

[Ozymandias]

Good game. Team looks like it needed a bell-ringing wake-up call and thats what they got.

 

[gunks]

Man... I wonder who I dislike the most.

Vlade, Vivek, or Joerger?

Vlade has made some terrible, terrible mistakes during his tenure as GM, but I can't stay mad at the big fella (although I imagine I'll be mighty peeved with him when our top 3 pick goes to Boston)!

Joerger is a smug dinosaur, and VF21 can tell you how I feel about Vivek!

The more I watch JJ I seriously wonder if he would be a better shoot guard.

That was an awesome block. Gabriel has serious defensive potential.

The correct answer to this is Joerger

At least Vlade got us Fox, Hield, Bogdan, and Giles. That fool plays them like the grit and grind grizzlies and watch ZBo start

Right now I think I'm most pissed at Vlade, but no one should be giving Joerger a pass because of Vlade's bad roster construction. His coaching leaves a lot to be desired.

 

[Ozymandias]

This is something i've been wondering for many years. I still haven't settled on it. SF in the NBA is a whole different animal, especially vs starters, JJ kinda seems like "easy food"..

That was an awesome block. Gabriel has serious defensive potential.

For those who missed it

[swisshh]

Vlade is way worse than Joerger.

 

[The Effort Police]

Can we shut the book on the damn 3 big lineup already?

This is mostly Vlade's fault. Justin Jackson is the only SF on the roster. I didn't expect him to be this bad; coupled with Bogdan's injury the issue is getting exasperated. Buddy and Bogdan at the 2/3 until Vlade gets us an actual 3. There's no other way to do it. You can't play Bagley/Skal/WCS at the 3... you just can't.

But Joerger... if he has to play all 4 young bigs there's a way to do so without playing them out of position. It's practically coaching malpractice no matter what Vlade is saying on the matter.

 

[Sam0ah]

Is it bad that I miss Kosta? The bigs have been pretty bad. JVG talking about Buddy going under all those screens was pretty intense too.

 

[kingsfan1984]

Gabriel should get the rest of the preseason SF starter mins to show what he can do. JJ looks to have been infected by BMclemoritis and there is no cure for that

 

[SLAB]

Vlade is way worse than Joerger.

Let’s be honest.... They’re both terrible.
